Have a link to that study, i could only find this guy https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-50944461.amp

Frankly a virus that could be programed to target a specific gene, is probably where some governments would go, imagine a weapon wiping out only targeted people based on genes

True but we never had the mapped human genome with the ability to edit individual genes until recently. Would i want to test the effects of messing with some genes? No, but of I had a crippling genetic affliction yes, I would. Everything from downs, to alzheimers to MS can start to be at least looked at.

It's a cycle that isn't sustainable, wages haven't kept up with inflation since the 80s so now it takes 2 people 30yr, 45yr mortgages with little downpayment to get a house, it's not supply and demand it's easy lending and low wages in a system dependent on non stop growth that guarantees inflation and a wealth gap where billionaires accumulate and don't redistribute wealth back into the system.

I mean if certain genes cause over or under production of say seratonin, or even certain proteins, then of course it's genetic. That tends to be where research is headed for lots of psychosis.

Eh i agree but i wouldn't phrase it like that....or else idiots start pedaling the natural gut remedies. From the studies I've seen yes they can explain it by gut biome yes.....but more so a dysfunctional or active gene that produces extra or not enough of something in the gut... similar things have been detected for lots of psychosis and genes that don't produce serotonin, it is an interesting field.

Dystopian or Utopian. Either we all move towards a single goal of feeding, housing, educating and caring for each other outside the confines of economic ability.....or the technology that we have gained is used by corporations to keep us in a new age slavery where we're born in debt and can't hope the have class mobility because everything is so damn expensive.

Ex. Housing, medical, education, even food has gone up more than triple the pace of wages since 1980. (Except some fields, IT etc) Thats why one parent use to work and make a good living for a family of four, now its paycheck to paycheck for a couple and one bad medical episode away from bankrupting them. Im not socialist, just not so hardcore capitalist the way it is now.

Use the GPS network, add some big A mirrors or reflectors and concentrate or bounce the suns rays around and focus them on one point! Dr evil would be melting the ice caps

Always interesting, healthcare is the biggest piece of US GDP at 20%. Meaning, a lotttttt of money and economic capital is spent on people being sick. Imagine if people didn't smoke, exercised, ate a bit healthier and got screened regularly and cheaply for disease. It is very possible our economy would shrink and be taken back decades.
